As someone not really qualified to speak on this, my impression is that the two magical girl shows most casual anime fans would be familiar with are Sailor Moon and Madoka Magica

Edit: Sailor Moon and Cardcaptor Sakura both benefitted from pretty extensive localizations, Sailor Moon being comparable to Dragon Ball Z in terms of success. Madoka came out during the height of the streaming boom, and was basically Evangelion but for girls.

Dead Dead Demon's Dededede Destruction Ep 14

Direct quote from the episode:

spoiler

That Mothership in Japan is like a kid... who hasn't gotten laid! ...and is about to shoot it's load! It's true! We're leaders of the free world! That's us!'

Okay, so I never really wrote it down, but what I really really really love about CSM is how Fujimoto takes really simple, easily understood metaphors and just uses them to brutally illustrate our condition under late capitalism

Making literal deals with devils...

Just, man, this manga is just so peak

Dead Dead Demon's Dedede Destruction is an amazing show. It's a bit heavy to watch though, considering current events.

I did not have this on my 2024 bingo card, ngl. Even if it ends up a trainwreck, at least it'll have a banging soundtrack

Hoping for animated Brisket bridget-smug

Edit: Sanzigen is the studio who did the Anniversary MV. So, there may be reason to be cautiously optimistic lol

I've been looking forward to Dead Dead Demon's Dededede Destruction's anime adaptation, especially since I'm allergic to reading manga. Subs aren't great but ah well, we work with what we've got, hopefully fansubbers pick it up.

Don't watch ep 0 tho apparently it's spoilers.

Sony backed down (twitter.com)

Although I don't know if Steam will re-enable sales for regions without PSN coverage.

I suddenly understand what Mark Fisher was yappin' about with Hauntology.

The show is like carbon monoxide. It's very peaceful.

Looks good, they really nailed Fujimoto's style.

I think he misspelled lib.

Btw what we mean by liberals is the original political term for those who support capitalism, not the colloquial American synonym for Democrat that alt-right types use. Conservative and libertarians are also liberals strictly speaking because they also subscribe to the same basic underlying ideology.

Edit: quoting the relevant part

In Europe and Latin America, liberalism means a moderate form of classical liberalism and includes both conservative liberalism (centre-right liberalism) and social liberalism (centre-left liberalism). In North America, liberalism almost exclusively refers to social liberalism.

That no one bothered to check if we were down as well before slinging accusations is really telling, I think. I only wandered in there by accident because I was curious if other lemmy instances were affected by the DDoS attack on us.

Lmao, federation/defederation will be a problem that solves itself, but it's been very entertaining so far
